Face-lathering with Mitchell's Wool Fat - Jayaruh - 05-17-2020

I just made this gif of me face-lathering with Mitchell's Wool Fat. I just wet my face, rubbed on some MFW, and began lathering with Tom's B-400 two-band badger brush. I captured this clip from this shave: https://youtu.be/RXS3T5xVXis

Walter Long, auld time actor (Laurel & Hardy flick bad guy), due to my lockdown haircut my appearance has been likened to him.

That's the fellow, not very flattering, although I have to admit, that will be me in a couple of years.

Nice video Jayaruh!! If I hold my mug or lather bowl next to my cheek, is that face lathering??

I think face lathering works with some soaps that are considered difficult lather-ers, such as Williams (modern) or MWF because short whiskers are orders of magnitude stiffer than any brush, they scrape off a bunch more soap in a hurry. In my experience the harder to lather soaps mostly need more soap than anything else. Face lathering accomplishes that.
